Romance breaks the formula with director Nthato Mokgata
There is fresh blood at ROMANCE. Nthato Mokgata has stepped into commercial filmmaking, joining ROMANCE’s diverse lineup of directing talent. But, calling Nthato a director barely scratches the surface. From pioneering Pan African electronic music as Spoek Mathambo, to winning an Annie Award with his Disney short ‘Surf Sangoma’, and releasing his debut novel ‘Ghost in the Drum’, his work has always defied borders. Now he’s applying that distinctive voice to the world of advertising, opening new possibilities for South African creatives.

One of the most powerful of these is spinning, South Africa’s first homegrown motorsport and ‘Box Nation’ is turning this township-born sport into South Africa’s next global cultural export.
